Going to IKEA later. Want something to cheer me up?

[Moier]

Rare day out for me.. ( Severly disabled).. getting taken to IKEA.
Not been for a year.
Anything nice l should buy ?
Candles? Plants? Vases? Plant pots?
Homeware?
Thankyou in advance for suggestion.

That'll be nice! I always get a soft toy for the kids as they love them! Love their plants though - always nice to look at and try to keep alive (in my case!)
Enjoy!!

They had lovely plants when I was there last week, and if you get a small vase (£1.50 I think) from there and a bunch of daffodils for £1 from a supermarket, you will have instant cheer 😊😁

Buy some of the frozen meatballs if they still sell them and they used to sell a nice elderflower cordial or juice drink. I like the slightly weird kitchen stuff.

Thankyou

Meatballs, cinnamon roles, daim cake!

Thankyou everyone.
I tend to buy faux plants.

They have some really nice, realistic fake plants (I cannot keep real ones alive). That and a nice pot to it would be my vote!

Yes definitely.
I've had my living room decorated and new curtains/ pictures etc .. l want a large fake floor plant.

Cinnamon buns and sparkling pear drink https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/dryck-bubbel-paeron-sparkling-pear-drink-40226766/

Have a look at duvet covers if you might need any, they have nice ones at very reasonable prices.

Have you got a cat? They do these cute little cat houses that look like tents.

The little daim (I call them dime!) bars by the tills 😋
have fun, marketplace or whatever it’s called is my favourite.

Meat balls & the vegetable balls (not the pretend meat ones)

Meatballs, biscuits and frozen salmon! Nice new rug or throw?

@Moier - my DS has the Shark! I use him in bed to help support my arm (psoriatic arthritis and pains in bed - Sammy shark is perfect as a cushion!! 🤩🦈

I can't remember what they are called but the jam biscuits are gorgeous I buy loads of packets when I'm there, I also replace my chopping boards .dull I know.

Oh go for lunch meatballs and chips is my favourite.

Yes a mooch about market place is my favourite.

Right I'm going now.
( I'm on mounjaro.. so food might not be happening).
I'm sure ill be over spending lol.
Thanks everyone. 💐

Real plants. I murder mine, but at the price Ikea sells them, I just toss and replace every 8/12 months.

Pity you are not into food. The meatballs. I go and really stock up, meatballs, the sauce in a packet and the lingonberry sauce. As many meatball packs as I think freezer will hold and all the rest to suit the estimated meatball meals. Once the first kid spots it in the freezer, I have found they must message all their siblings as them they are all home for dinner and expecting it and excited. It amazes me, they gave licenses, drive and their own means of purchasing this stuff, yet don’t, but when they know I have it’s like they have all suddenly won the lottery 🤣🤣🤣.

ETA - I don’t use packet potato. Everything else is IKEA for the meals though, including the sparkling apple drink.

Too late for OP but just to say that the new scented candle (Tradcypress) smells just like freshly washed linen and at £1 is a lovely affordable treat! And the packets of mini cinnamon rolls at £1.95.

I'm excited to see/hear what you bought!
